Tariffs may not be the best option, but they’re actually a strong negotiation tool—especially when the richest country in the world uses them to pressure others.

That’s been the plan from the start.

Another goal is to shake up the markets a bit so that interest rates can be brought down.

All of this is intentional, and it’s going exactly according to plan.

I’ve been trying to explain this to Democrats since January.

those who got panicked and selling their stocks are useful idiots.

Sure

Good to see which countries take the path to be bullied...sometimes it may not be bullying, the general public may not be aware of the actual trade relationship.


In the case for Singapore, the US actually has a surplus with Singapore. The US sells more than it buys from SG, so technically if the US imports less, that's "good" for SG, tilting to SG's favour. Slapping retaliatory tariffs doesn't make sense for SG
So if the US plays this card, SG could choose to shift some of the trade away from the US, give it to the EU, ASEAN and China, minimizing the exposure. https://www.singstat.gov.sg/modules/infogra...rnational-trade

tariffs are linked to trade… supply and demand… so if tariffs are high, the demand is low..
meaning the affordability is less and slows down growth..so, what’s the point of having low interest because people are out of jobs?

if you believe a targeted tariff on a random island in the ocean will only affect the animals living there,
you have a serious problem in critical thinking.

Try to think really hard on the most logical reason,
because it is actually so simple.

The most logical reason is someone has made a mistake and nobody in the team has spent time to catch it.

If you meant the official explanation of stopping trans-shipping. You know, USA Custom are not manned by stupid people who cannot stop those trans-shipping from an island occupied only by penguins. Or does Trump government really look down on their own people so much?

You can say whatever negative things about him
and you may be right.

But he is a businessman FIRST.
He have the best people around him giving advice
on what we don't know or will never know.

Him winning the election twice against
TWO OVER-CONFIDENT presidential candidates was no fluke.
The way he won both elections was beautifully executed.

He may lost to Biden, because of the changes in voting restrictions during COVID
but the way Kamala lost, primarily blaming absent voters,
truly exposes why Biden won in the first place.

Assumptions does not make it fact. You can have access to best people to give you advice, but you may not listen to those advices, but instead choose to listen to those bad advices instead. Many presidents have won two terms, Trump is just one of them. Are all two terms president great? Republicans don't think so. He won, due to circumstances favor him. That's all.

Trump got 6 bankruptcy (lousiest businessman)

The way he carried out press conference with Zelensky (total lack of diplomatic skill)

The way he mislabelled erroneous formula as some sort of sophisticated formula to derive unfair tariff (either he and his team are really dumb or very malicious intend to mislead Muricans)

Among reasons why Trump won…
-Kamala really a lousy opponent, she always talked nonsense, any voter without political bias can see right thru she is incompetent as leader and has zero vision.
-many Muricans already fed up with Democrats extreme WOKEism

If you read more, it is not just Trump but almost everyone who owns a casino in Atlantic City.
It is general knowledge dude.

A lot of the casinos in Atlantic City gone bankrupted/closure or have decrease in revenue
following the Great Recession and the legalization of gambling in adjacent and nearby states.

9 casinos left, a dozen get renamed, 10 closed, 10 got cancelled in Atlantic City
So declaring bankruptcy on a guaranteed failed business is a wise thing to do.

The way he conducted the meeting was pretty obvious, no?

He instantly demoralize Z by mocking his appearance in front of reporters
as soon as he step out from his motorcade.
He also planted a reporter to stir up his emotion by criticizing Z wardrobe choices.

Asking for a outrageous mineral deal is just a way to trap Z into submission.
He was nowhere into getting those minerals and Trump knows it.

The whole charade is to humble Z and paint him as a grifter.
Vance did a very good wing man's job in making Z saying things he shouldn't say.

All for what?
ONE: To reduce USA aid to the war
TWO: To force EU to pay for it instead.

Does it work?
You tell me.
Ask Ursula von der Leyen yourself.

you cant trans-ship from a place where there's no business to receive and re-export, or in fact no one there to register your business in the first place.

it is far likelier that the tiny amount of trade currently recorded by heard island are typos (e.g. people typing country code HM instead of e.g. HK) and the trump admin never checked.

But anyway, hope PMX don't fall for the retaliation tariff and tax us all. Nego first and then later if cannot lancar campaoign boikot and beli local.

look behind the trade figures . nod.gif

Example.. if SG exports to USA coffee , toys , rubber , textile s , electronics , others
So where did this products come from
Are they/SG being used as a tran hub to cheat on tariff ??

I have mentioned this many, many times. Trump supporters are trying to paint him as a master wheeler dealer and savvy businessman.

The problem is this.

The US is a democracy, not a company where Trump reigns supreme. There is going to be pushback especially when the impact is truly felt. Even now there is growing concern even from his own allies.

In this game of chicken, I'm gonna bet on Trump blinking first.

Depends if tariff is on luxury goods or necessity goods.

If its on alcohol, jewelry, games etc it will be good.

But if its on furnitures, electrical, electronics ,car , foods, and raw materials it is bad.

Take us for examples, our car. Our government tarif toyota, honda and all imported car.

Ask yourself this. Do you still buy? Or you stop buying?

And worst, even proton begin to jack up its prices overtime to be in terms of price on par with imported car + tariff.

One example is insprira vs lancer

Lancer is around 120k ,inspira 90k

But think carefully lancer without all the excise duty and taxes is actually only 50k. Your inspira is 90k.

Who are the loser here? Japanese company or us malaysian?


Now all price increase in usa, in future when new usa president remove all tariff. That price is going to stick around.
When the seller notice consumer will still buy when price is high.

This is what most people forgot. All of this "show of power" is to tell the others "we won't be bulied anymore - BUT we will negotiate".

Only 2 so far retaliated. Europe likely will also negotiate or have "peace offering".

There is a clear reason why Biden won,
because of X number of people can vote from home during COVID

I still think the undecided/not wanna vote, X number of people remains the same for Biden and Kamala's election.

Biden won because Trump made a huge error by telling his supporters not to use postal votes, but straight go to polling stations. Since it was still Covid-19 time, it take longer than average for each person to cast their vote, hence many voters were unable to cast for him.

Remember his Tweet about "I WON BY A LOT"? It was actually true in some sense - he did have more supporters, just that wasn't translated into votes.

SG has trade deficit with US, they even have zero tariff against US and trade agreement. But Trump is a “smart businessman” as per ktards that ignore all normal rules of international relationship.

As per ktards fans of orange man, it’s smart move to intimidate whole world with blanket tariff threats. Taiwan govt now being bashed by its own ppl, after kneeling down to Trump, even let their chip maker to move to US, now still get tariff no better than any other countries because orange man use the most illogical tariff calculation method that no economist agreed.

If it happened before it can happen again. I'll start buying at 50% and go all in if it reaches 75%.

Tariffs may not be the best option, but they’re actually a strong negotiation tool—especially when the richest country in the world uses them to pressure others.

That’s been the plan from the start.

Another goal is to shake up the markets a bit so that interest rates can be brought down.

All of this is intentional, and it’s going exactly according to plan.

I’ve been trying to explain this to Democrats since January.

those who got panicked and selling their stocks are useful idiots.

I read a comment on Reddit saying before Trudeau left, he went around making deals with country leaders in anticipation of Trump's tariffs.

i think i figured out liao.

-trump is only making things more expensive for avg american. theres no question on this already.
-if price somehow stablize, it is only temporary until it returns to expensive again.
-instead of doing other way, he wants to take a 'high business risk' and want to show whos the boss. HAHAHAHAHA

this is like PN vs BN scenario la, laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

I guess some AMDK still cant accept USA defeat. They are long gone. China manufacture to sell at cost price. USA manufacture to sell at exorbitant price. 2 very different mentality which means manufacturing will not return to USA anytime soon. Their $20-30 wages per hour is not suited for manufacturing.

Nope not saying chinese products inferior to usa.

trump's plan is to re-industrialize USA means all their factories will move from Asia back to USA.

he plans to devalue the USD, to make it cheap enough to have their local production.
